FAQs

Installation begins with confirming the 19-300 Vdc / 40-250 Vac power supply range and 50/60 Hz compatibility. Mount the unit semi-flush, attach the removable terminals, and connect the 8 digital inputs and 9 outputs to the protected transformer circuit as per the wiring diagram. Ensure RS-485 Modbus RTU and Ethernet TCP/IP are configured in the control system for remote monitoring. Use the Trip Coil Monitor and URTD/IRIG-B interfaces as required for your protection scheme. Finally, verify communication with the SCADA/EMS and perform a functional test to confirm fault detection and isolation operations.
Important electrical specs include a dual power range of 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac, 50/60 Hz operation, and phase current options of 5A and 1A. The device provides 8 digital inputs and 9 digital outputs, 2 current-sensing inputs, and supports Modbus/RTU over RS-485 as well as Modbus TCP over Ethernet. These specifications enable flexible integration with mixed-voltage transformer protection schemes and plant-wide control systems.
Yes, the ETR-5000-2A0IA0 is designed for transformer protection in industrial environments, offering8 inputs, 9 outputs, and multiple communication options (RS-485 and Ethernet) to integrate with existing control architectures. Its protection and monitoring features, including Trip Coil Monitor and time synchronization interfaces, support rapid fault detection, safer operations, and easier coordination with SCADA/EMS systems across plant networks.
The data provided lists 'Compliances: Contact Manufacturer' rather than specific certifications. For regulatory certainty in your region, verify CE, SIL, IP ratings, and any industry-specific requirements directly with Eaton or an authorized distributor. This ensures the device meets your project’s safety, environmental, and interoperability standards before deployment.
Deploying the ETR-5000-2A0IA0 can reduce unplanned outages through accurate protection and remote diagnostics, potentially shortening fault resolution times.
